This was caught in a drainage ditch off a local lake by Florida Power. Upload

I'd hit that slider if I saw it on my lake, just so I can knock it out and keep it from biting me.

Oh yeah the article said it was 18'3" . It was so big they didnt kill it, it was going to some zoo or something. I say turn it loose in the Tigris river in Iraq, and let the big boy EAT.

Who caught it? Since the croc hunter died who does this sort of stuff now? I'm looking for job.

Florida Power found it and called in some trapper I'm sure. Trappers in Fl are everywhere.

Actually if I recall correctly from a few months ago that picture has nothing to do with Florida. The original story included snakes too!

The story I saw didnt have the snakes, they definitley look like snakes from out west. The story didnt say anything about Orl. airport either its amazing what gets added to stories. Next they will say they found Bigfoot inside the gator. Snopes did say the photos are real though. Still a huge gator!!

Bigfoot, thats just a myth, the abominable snowman is about to run out of one of those pipes and eat an FPL guy though.

I want to thank the A-hole that released an Anaconda into the Everglades.

That was found in an Alabama canal.
It wasn't 18'3" it was 24'6" 1860lbs and was shot to death when it began to fight when loading.
The line around it's neck is about to be used to winch it up for a photo (the still photo is taken from video). They were real proud of it.
I think it's a shame! 24 and a half feet...you know how old he must've been? Experts should've come in and moved him.
This clip was emailed to me some months ago. I'll look for it and post it.
